Renowned music star Peter Okoye, also known as Mr. P, criticized his twin brother Paul Okoye, a.k.a. Rudeboy, in an open letter following Paul’s recent interview about their second split.
Intel Region recalls that the twins, formerly known together as PSquare, have parted ways for the second time.
Paul Okoye recently made some claims about his brother in an interview, revealing that he supposedly wrote most of their songs. He also mentioned that his twin brother had allegedly had him arrested by the EFCC.
In response, his twin brother wrote an open letter addressing these allegations. He clarified that, contrary to Paul’s claims, he also wrote many successful songs, despite his brother pointing out just one that didn’t perform well.
Mr P said in part;
“My dear brother Paul,
Just like I have told you several times, I am not in any competition with you or anybody else. However, seeing you grant countless interviews where you constantly
discredit my efforts in the group that we both created and built together really speaks volumes. In your recent interviews, you claimed that you wrote and sang 99% of all P-SQUARE songs and discredited me by saying that our song with Tl “EjeaJo,” which I wrote, was a failure. You went as far as using the YouTube views to discredit me once again. You never acknowledged the other songs like “Get-Squared,” “Bizzy Body,” “Personally,” “Roll It,” “Temptation,” “Alingo,” “More than a Friend,” “Shekini,” “Say Your Love,” “Gimme Dat,” “Senorita,” “IGBEdu,” and a few others. Were these songs also considered failures as well?
Every time I have spoken in interviews about P-SQUARE, I have always used “we” and “us” because I saw us as a team. But whenever you speak, it’s always “l” and “me,” even when I’m standing right beside you. It’s as if I never existed. My brother, neither of us is the most talented artist in the world, but you fail to understand that God gave us this talent and even granted us another chance to excel after our last breakup. Instead, you chose to turn the most awarded and decorated music group in Africa into a laughingstock again. One thing you need to understand clearly is that the fans didn’t fall in love with P-SQUARE because of who sang or danced the most. What made us special was the magic that came from our combined effort – us two! P-SQUARE was a force, and the fans fell in love with P-SQUARE because of our uniqueness and unity. We both have talent, no doubt, and I have often praised you in our interviews for your songwriting ability. I have also praised anyone who has ever written a song for us or even for me as Mr. P. But instead of showing gratitude for my kind words, you seem to find satisfaction in rubbing it in my face, forgetting that it is by God’s grace that we have come this far.”

He added; “An open letter to my twin brother Paul. I will also be addressing the latest EFCC matter about Psquare and our former manager and elder brother Jude before the end of today — it’s time for the fans to hear my side of the story.”
